a little different, though, since they knew kids would be watching 
this on home video, and most kids films sell best in fullscreen.

Manda,

Just had to laugh at "someone needs to educate the mothers" since I 
am a mother, an HP fanatic, and an advocate of the widescreen 
version of any film: that's how they were meant to be viewed, were 
they not?  I made the mistake of asking my little one, just today, 
if he wanted to view his movie (not HP; he's only 4-years-old) 
fullscreen or widescreen (it came with two discs, one of each) and I 
was actually upset when he chose the former.  Next time he won't 
have a choice: I've got to raise the boy properly, don't I?  :)
